Think beyond your limits!!!!
You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining
heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people
waiting for a bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

2. An old friend who once saved your life.

3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that
there could only be one passenger in your car?

Think before you continue reading... Faint

This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a
job application.


* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus
you should save her first;

* or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and
this would be the perfect chance to pay him back.

* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble
coming up with his answer. Guess what was his answer?

He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let
him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the
bus with the partner of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought
limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

So what was yours ?????

Re: Think beyond your limits!!!!
by giving the car keys to my Old friend and let
him take the lady to the hospital and stay behind with the partner of my dreams is not perfect solution.

1. If my friend unable to drive
or not interested to take the old lady to the hospital.
2. the person in my dream is not friend of mine rather a stranger to at that moment.

3. It's not possible for us to make everything wroks infavor of us, personal interest is sometimes get less importance to our moral duty.

4. Its more important to save a dying person.

so, taking the dying lady to the hospital get the priority than the other two person in my view.
